Provided herein is an apparatus for manufacturing a drink. The apparatus for manufacturing a drink includes: an input unit receiving customer's order information; a material storing unit storing materials for manufacturing the drink therein; a drink manufacturing unit including a mixing tank receiving the materials stored in the material storing unit and mixing the received materials with each other; a drink outlet discharging the drink manufactured in the drink manufacturing unit; pipes forming connection paths for transferring the materials stored in the material storing unit to the drink manufacturing unit; valves formed in the pipes; a vacuum pump connected to the mixing tank of the drink manufacturing unit to generate vacuum in a material accommodating space formed in the mixing tank; and a controlling unit controlling the valves and the vacuum pump on the basis of the customer's order information input to the input unit to allow materials corresponding to a customer's order to be transferred to the mixing tank.

A handheld reusable multi-compartmental mixing and dispensing container for storing fluids separately therein before mixing. The proportions of the substances in a mixture are externally adjustable. The desired concentration is determined by test components attached to the container that sense various environmental and user specific factors. The amount of the adjustable substance to be added to a mixture is controlled by an adjustment wheel on the container. A single control button allows a user to choose what fluid substances are to be mixed and dispensed. A pressurized gas propellant in a replaceable canister moves the fluid around and out of the container.

Systems and methods for fabricating ingestible pharmaceutical tablets are provided. Certain of the systems and methods described herein are capable of manufacturing tablets of different dosages without the need to fluidically connect or disconnect unit operations when switching from a tablet having a first dosage to a tablet having a second, different dosage. Certain of the systems and methods described herein are capable of manufacturing compositionally tablets, e.g., tablets with different active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

A device for making up a pharmaceutical preparation comprising at least one first mounting device adapted to hold a source container filled with a liquid component of the pharmaceutical preparation, at least one second mounting device adapted to hold a target container provided with at least one access port for receiving the liquid component of the pharmaceutical preparation, and at least one third mounting device adapted to hold a transfer container adapted to transfer the liquid component from the source container to the target container. The at least one third mounting device is movable with respect to the at least one first mounting device and to the at least one second mounting device such that the liquid component can be transferred from the source container to the target container.

An apparatus includes a housing, a dispensing system disposed in the housing, a spectral measurement device, and a computing system. The dispensing system includes at least one storage container, a pump operatively connected to each of the storage containers, and a mixing chamber. The computing system includes a control mechanism operatively connected to the pump and the spectral measurement device, a processor, a storage device, an input, and a display.

The present disclosure relates to a dispenser, comprising: a housing; a plurality of cartridges which are disposed inside the housing; a mounting body to which the plurality of cartridges are mounted so as to be replaceable; a main motor which rotates the mounting body; and an elevating body which elevates such that a composition is discharged from any one of the plurality of cartridges, wherein the elevating body may be disposed so as to be displaced on a rotation path on which the plurality of cartridges rotate.

A mixer is provided for mixing a substance in a container. The mixer includes a motor; a frame configured to be controlled by the motor to rotate on an axis; a carrier disposed at a first end of the frame and configured to hold the container; a counterweight disposed at a second end of the frame opposite to the carrier, wherein the counterweight position relative to the axis is adjustable. The mixer may be a stand-alone unit, or it may be disposed in an apparatus for dispensing a cosmetic composition.

Systems and methods of custom dispensing present a plurality of custom dispense options to a user. At least one user selection is received. A recipe ID representative of the at least one selection is created. The at least one selection of the custom dispense is dispensed. The custom dispense options may include a flavoring, a conduit, or a size of a dispense. A recipe ID may be encoded in an image including a bar code or quick response code. The recipe ID may facilitate communication between a point-of-sale system and a dispenser.

Systems and methods of custom condiment dispensing include a reservoir of base condiment and a plurality of flavoring reservoirs. A first pump is pneumatically connected to the reservoir of base condiment. The second pump is pneumatically connected to at least one flavoring reservoir of the plurality of flavoring reservoirs. A nozzle is fluidly connected to the reservoir of base condiment and fluidly connected to the plurality of flavoring reservoirs. The nozzle is configured to simultaneously dispense the base condiment and at least one flavoring therethrough. A controller receives the user selections of the base condiment and the at least one flavoring and operates the first pump and the second pump to dispense base condiment and at least one flavoring.
